Heya, I was just flying around doing some basic ratting to get myself some ISKies when I came up with this very simple idea for all those lazy asses like me ;)

The idea is very simple and probably nothing that is "needed".

So the idea: The idea is basicly, when you have more than 5 drones in your drone bay. You will be able to right click on up to 5 drones and choose "Set a Primary Drone" (or something like that).
This will simply do, when right clicking on "Drones in Bay" and choose Launch Drones those five(5) drones you choosed will be the one popping out instead of some random amount of light and meds etc.

This idea is very simple and won't actually do much to the game. But it would be a nice little thing for lazy asses like me with more than 5 drones in their drone bay :)

Take care o/

You know you can group drones, right? Then you can choose which group to launch.

One day they woke me up so I could live forever

It's such a shame the same will never happen to you

Yes ofcourse... But that means I have to open the "tab"...

You don't have to open any tab other than "drones in bay", which stays open if you open it. You can right-click on the group header to launch the group.
